Event Description
80 Million
Country: Poland
Director: Waldemar Krzysteck
80 Million is set in the autumn of 1981, ten days before the proclamation of martial law in Poland. Three members of the anti-communist movement take out 80 million zlotys from the organization’s bank account, just before it is blocked by the authorities. The money – that is miraculously saved – will then support Solidarity in its opposition to the government. This suspenseful drama recounts an important period of Poland’s history in a universal, original, and optimistic way. It was chosen as Poland's entry for the 2012 Academy Awards. (2011; 102 min) Presented in collaboration with the Polish Cultural Council.
